Lionel Messi has arguably taken his game to new heights this season
Was there any doubt as to who would head this list? Lionel Messi has been simply inspirational for Barcelona this season. The Argentine maestro has not only scored a bucketload of goals, he also leads the list when it comes to assists showing how important he is to Ernesto Valverde's side.

Having adapted brilliantly to Valverde's new 4-4-2 formation, the Barcelona 'number 10' has arguably become even more of an overall threat this season, scoring and creating goals with equal ease.
